Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Virginia is tightening up - in the 10 minutes since I last refreshed Romney's lead has gone from 54/45 to 51/47 with 46% of precincts counted.

According to 538.com, the best bellwether county in VA is Montgomery County. Obama's winning there 49.8% to 47.6%, with 71% of the vote counted. Change from 2008 looks pretty slight. (Of course, there may be more Republican-leaning precincts yet to be counted, but better this than the reverse.)

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Someone just posted on FB that Wisconsin was called for Obama, but I don't know where she saw that.

NBC called WI.

NBC also just called out that the Warren call was a hoax.

Yeah, I just asked her, and she said MSNBC called Wisconsin for Obama.

We have ABC on, and they are dragging their asses.

I replaced the toilet flapper! The silence of a no-longer-leaky toilet is kind of deafening.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Hee hee. The notBrian guy on NBC just said "razor tight" and thanks to Colbert last night I am cracking up.

I think it should be a drinking game. Butchered metaphor? DRINK!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

According to MSNBC, Obama has won WI. Their graphic shows that he has won 46% / 53%. No, I do not have those numbers reversed...election calls confuse me.

Pennsylvania for Obama! Booyah.

Pennsylvania votes [1] David Axelrod's moustache!

Ok, there's my personal connection to the race. Onya, PA.

Bah. My old county (Montgomery) hasn't even started reporting yet.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Princeton Election Consortium sez:

9:34pm. CBS: New Hampshire called for Obama. Erm, election’s probably over. And unskewers are full of it.
